Police also arrested Samuel Jacobowitz, 16, and his passenger, Benzion Star, 20, both from Brooklyn, after they allegedly attempted to evade the check point. Neither occupant was licensed to drive, the statement said. Police alleged they were found to illegally possess Adderall and Vyvanese pills, which are controlled substances, along with some marijuana.

Jacobowitz and Star were charged with seventh degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, having a controlled substance not in its original container, and unlawful possession of marijuana. In addition, Jacobowitz was charged with several traffic violations, police said. They were released upon posting bail.

Police also arrested Neil D. Peterson, 41, of Newburgh, after he allegedly attempted to evade the check point. A police statement said Peterson’s New York state driver’s license has been suspended numerous times and was revoked by the Department of Motor Vehicles. Peterson was also the subject of an active warrant held by the Town of Newburgh Police Department, police said, and was released into their custody.

All the arrested individuals were processed at the state police barracks in Montgomery, the statement said. They were released to appear in the Town of Newburgh justice court in early September.
